CO2 fire extinguishing system

In the field of fire prevention and fighting, CO2 (Carbon Dioxide) has affirmed its position as an effective, safe and environmentally friendly solution. With its outstanding properties and diverse applications, CO2 is increasingly trusted in modern fire fighting systems.

What is CO2 gas?

CO2 is a colorless, odorless, and electrically non-conductive gas. Widely recognized as part of the natural cycle, CO2 plays an important role in fire protection systems because of its ability to quickly extinguish flames without leaving residue or damaging equipment.

Application of CO2 gas in fire fighting

The CO2 fire extinguishing system works by suffocating the fire by reducing the oxygen concentration in the environment to a level insufficient to sustain the fire. At the same time, CO2 is liquefied so when sprayed in the form of a gas with a negative temperature, it absorbs heat, reducing the temperature in the fire area, helping to control and extinguish the fire quickly.

CO2 gas is often used in the following cases:

1. Areas with electrical and electronic equipment: CO2 is non-conductive, helping to protect sensitive equipment.
2. Industrial Plants: Protects expensive machinery and equipment without leaving behind chemicals or residue.
3. Storage: Effectively extinguishes fires without damaging goods or archives.

Advantages of CO2 gas in fire fighting

• Fast and effective: CO2 extinguishes fire in a short time, suitable for fires in the early stages.
• No damage to equipment: No residue left after extinguishing, saving time and cleaning costs.
• Environmentally friendly: CO2 is recycled from industrial sources, not adding to the amount of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere.

Operating principle of CO2 fire extinguishing system

When the system detects a fire, CO2 gas is sprayed from the nozzles at high pressure, covering the fire area, absorbing heat and rapidly reducing the amount of oxygen. In an oxygen-deficient environment, the fire cannot continue to burn and will be completely extinguished.
